The text explores the ontological nature of true being and its relationship with the surrounding world through the concept of orientation. The author argues that every true being is defined not only by its current state but also by its past and future potential. Since being is an active performance, it requires a constant response to the environment, making orientation a vital element of existence, especially for higher-level beings. Through the process of orientation, the being constitutes its environment (osvětí), an appropriated part of the world inherently linked to its existence. This orientation is anchored in the being's memory but must remain flexible to allow for situational adaptations and temporary transformations. The main conclusion is that the environment cannot be studied separately from the being itself, as they form an inseparable unity. The reflection highlights the dynamic and relational character of being, where the subject is defined through its active agency and its rooting in the environment that it continuously creates and appropriates through its own existence.
